    Moomin decluttered to a party..and sleepover.. she will be delivered back here tomorrow about lunchtime probably.

    WM and TD on

    DS3 and DD3 screaming at each other.. lovely children..

    2 packets of skips decluttered.. and a cuppa.. off for another cuppa and some drugs for these achey ancent joints of mine.. gotta love damp mornings.. Hey.. if I struggle to start on cold damp mornings like an old car does that mean I am vintage now? (or just knackered?)

    Anyway.. LOADS of cleaning to get through so hopefully we can manage it this weekend.. I am going to start by.. sorting the ebay stuff.. I haven't done it for months and I know there are some bits which will keep for Freja in there!

    I have 2 binbags to be delivered to charity shop.. let's see if I can make it.. 4 ... for starters though I want it to be 6!!

    I paid off my storecard yesterday.. another debt gone.. I am now down to just me next account (which I want paying off before the christmas sale starts!) and my littlewoods account which has loads of stuff on it (including the new bed and school uniform stuff) but WILL be paid off by easter if it kills me!!!

    I want shot of the wardrobe in the girls room too so I MUST sort the contents..

    Off I trot.. and hope Freja is a good princessy girl today.. rather than the toad she was last Saturday!

    You're sounding bright piggers - hope Freja is the princess rather than the toad.

    Freja is being princessy.. and is fast asleep and has been since we got back from dropping moomin at the party at 11:30.. so I have a binbag of rubbish and 3 binbags for charity shop.. from my ebay pile and nearby piles of gibble.. DD3 came out of her room and said 'Ooh.. a table'... :o:o:o

    Towels hung on line.. double pegged cos the darn things kept dropping off
    WM on again .. last of school stuff I think..

    OH been asked to put on new loo seats.. and I am wondering if I am brave enough to change a light fitting.. how hard can it be? Men do it!!

    Decluttered prawns and muscles from fridge.. into my stomach!! and cuppa swilled.

    Does anyone want a pile of girls age 13 school trousers (looks about 10 pairs)? Or a pile of age 12 boys black school trousers (5 pairs I think 2 are brand new)?
